Seize the Moment – Day 1306

Today’s hymn focus will be

King of Kings

 

Psalm 13:6 (NLT)

 

 “I will sing to the Lord because he is good to me.

 

Written in the summer of 2019 by Hillsong Worship artists Jason Ingram and Brooke and Scott Ligertwood, this praise anthem was created to help worshipers lean into the truths of the words and be stirred to worship. With the song firmly rooted in scripture and packed full of theology, their hopes were that this song would articulate the heart of the Gospel and the message of the church. Christ is the rescuer of sinners and gives us hope of new life in Him.

 

 Praise the Father, Praise the Son, Praise the Spirit, three in One

 God of Glory, Majesty, Praise forever to the King of Kings.

 

We need to wake up and realize that there is nothing that we can do to earn salvation. It is only through Christ’s rescue and redemption through his glorious resurrection that we can be saved. That is what gives us hope and is the message that we need to share with others today.

King of Kings

 
In the darkness we were waitingWithout hope, without light‘Til from Heaven You came runningThere was mercy in Your eyesTo fulfill the law and prophetsTo a virgin came the wordFrom a throne of endless gloryTo a cradle in the dirt
 
Praise the Father, praise the SonPraise the Spirit, three in oneGod of glory, MajestyPraise forever to the King of Kings
 
To reveal the kingdom comingAnd to reconcile the lostTo redeem the whole creationYou did not despise the crossFor even in your sufferingYou saw to the other sideKnowing this was our salvationJesus for our sake you died
 
Praise the Father, praise the SonPraise the Spirit, three in oneGod of glory, MajestyPraise forever to the King of Kings
 
And the morning that You roseAll of Heaven held its breath‘Til that stone was moved for goodFor the Lamb had conquered deathAnd the dead rose from their tombsAnd the angels stood in aweFor the souls of all who’d comeTo the Father are restored
 
And the church of Christ was bornThen the Spirit lit the flameNow this gospel truth of oldShall not kneel, shall not faintBy His blood and in His nameIn His freedom I am freeFor the love of Jesus ChristWho has resurrected me
 
Praise the Father, praise the SonPraise the Spirit, three in oneGod of glory, MajestyPraise forever to the King of Kings
Praise forever to the King of Kings
